review:
'Want to Know: Going To the Theater' by Florence Ducatteau with illustrations by Chantal Peten takes readers behind the curtains to see what goes on at the theater.

With a framing story of a school putting on a play (although what elementary school puts on Commedia dell'Arte with Harlequin and Columbina?), we learn all about aspects of the theater. We learn the history of the theater from the old days to the present. We learn about different kinds of theater. A cool cutaway of a theater are all included.

Based on the title, I thought it would be more about what to expect when you attend theater, and I guess it is. I liked it, and it's a good introduction to anyone wanting to learn more about theater.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Clavis Books and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
